HALEY AND DUBOIS.

The DEMOCRAT is proud OF having ad
vocated the election of John HALEY in
Idaho. 1t is perhaps still prouder Of
having opposed the election OF Dubois
The words and actions of both of these
men justify this double declaration Of
self congratulation. John HALEY has
introduced bill prohibiting reasonable
Mormons and law-breakers from pre-,
emption privileges upon public lands.
1t is second only in importance to the
bill passed in the House yes
terday. Mr. Haley was in full
sympathy with the Utah bill and it
received the benefit Of such moral sup
port as it was in his power to be-
stow. Dubois was opposed to II,
and his feeble efforts were drecteU
as an outsider at Washington towa'
its defeat. Although, since his election
he has publicly declared his opposition
to the measure so dear to .he heart Y.
every loyal American Of Utah, there has

lished in the sheet which 80 strenuously

UTAH,s PRESENT SITUATION.

Now that the winter OF our discomfort
seems about to be transformed into
glorious summer by the transfer OF the
local government OF Utah from disloyal
to loyal hands, it is well to pause and
consider the situation. 1t has been ap-
parent for long time, to observing and
thinking men in Utah, that it was aques-
ton OF time when, peaceably or torclbly,
the change must come. 1t is an old
chestnut, but meaty one, "Whom the
gods mean to destroy they first make
mad" That the few score priests who
hold the thousands OF Mormon rank and
file subservient to their bidding, have
been for long time hopelessly mad, is
absolutely true. Even il for any reason
now that it has passed the House the
Edmunds-Tucker bill should fail to
become law at this present session OF
Congress, it will be but a postponement
of the inevitable end. No church-much
less polygamous and disloyal body
will ever govern for any great length of
time State or Territory within the
United States. The insignificance of the
puny sect which first gained II toothold
in Utah, has thus far protected it from
the hand of Justice. The Nation has
been occupied in the settlement OF sec
tional issues, which, in their outcome
have shaken the Republic from centre to
circumference. Now, all parties agree
that loyalty to the flag and obedience to
the National law shall be the rule
throughout the length and breadth of the
land. The days OF polygamous and
priestly rule are to all intents and pur-
poses past The time has been when
conciliatory measures and compromise
would have STAYED off the present crisis
and ultimately merged the opposing
parties into fairly harmonious body.
polite. But the madness of alien proph-
cts, seers and revelators, has forever shut
out the golden opportunity. Their race
is run, and most ignoble record is
theirs.
The political, social and religious re
demption of Utah is no light or trihing
thing. So long as the loyal minority was
on the defensive and shorn of political
power, its responsibilities were light
To batter down the bastile OF Asiatic bar.
barism and ferocious fanaticism is one
thing-to erect in its place symmetrical
temple of justice and liberty is quite an
other. The honest-hearted but misguided
masses OF the Mormon people are to be
enlightened, educated and generously
treated. The intrigues OF malevolent lead
ers are to be frustrated. The rule or ruin
policy OF demagogues and place-hunters
is to be ignored. The inevitable struggle
for party supremacy is to be kept within
bounds and made subservient to the
general good. In short, there is so much
to be undone and so much to be done,
that the best-balanced minds may well
hesitate to assume the responsibilities Of
reconstruction.

CRUEL Tucker! How unhappy he has
made a little clique of Republicans in this
city who have all along denounced him
as a doublefaced hypocrite who was
playing into the hands OF the Mormon
lobby. By-the-by, we haven't heard
anything lately about that brother of his
who was supposed to be manipulating
the business in the Chairman's behalf in
connection with Delegate Caine and
other representatives of the tithing house
sack. An expose OF that nefarious busi-
ness is now in order. 1t would make in
teresting matter for the readers OF the
Sunday edition OF our Republican morn
ing contemporary.

The DEMOCRAT was the only Salt Lake
paper which issued an extra last evening
upon the receipt of the news of the pass
age of the Tucker bill. 1t issued third
edition OF 1000 papers, which did not
more than half supply the demand. In
less than half an hour the news-boys had
sold every copy and were clamoring for
more. We have made arrangements
with our Washington correspondent for
the news Immediately upon the passage
of the bill in the Senate, and will be fully
prepared to meet the demand for twice
the amount OF last evenings sales.

GOVERNOR HILLS MESSAGE.

The marked prominence OF Governor
Hill, of New York, in connection with
the use of his name as probable Presi-
dental candidate, gives interest to his
opinions on current political issues. His
recent message to the New York State
Legislature, is acknowledged by political
friends and foes to be most admirable
product ion. Republican Speaker Hustled,
spoke OF it as, Zone OF the best State
papers | ever listened to-" Governor Hill
gave larger space to the discussion OF the
labor question than is usually given
in messages to National or State Legisla-
lures. He compliments the intelligent
workingmen OF New York. What they
want, he says, sis not glittering general
tiles or fine-spun theories, but practical
measures OF relief" He recommends a
more general recognition OF their claims
to public positions, and lessening of the
hours OF their daily labor, so far as the
same can be properly controlled or regu-
lated by law The true policy OF the
State is to elevate and dignity labor, by
encouraging every honest effort to i'm
prove the condition of the laborer. The
dignity of labor can best be preserved by
better compensation for it. Additional
holidays for workingmen and encourage
ment for associated and cooperative
effort on their part is strongly advocated.
1t is quite evident that Governor Hill,
will, as a Presidential candidate, be a
favorite with the workingmen OF the
Democratic party at least.

"TIN-HoRN Democrats" is what Gen
eral Connor calls those men who, pre-
tending to Democratic principles, advo-
cate the election and appointment OF
Republicans to office. The species in
cludes those Utah Democrats who
wanted Blaine elected because &c il
wouldn't be safe to entrust our loca
issue to Democratic Administration.
While we wouldn't for the world make
any invidious comparison, we cannot
avoid glancing with considerable com
placency upon the two years Utah
record OF the Democratic party las against
the quarter OF century results of pre-
ceding administrations.

How would the card Of thanks tele-
graphed to Congressman Tucker last
night, read alongside Of half a dozen
editorials written by one of the signers,
in which the Chairman OF the House
Judiciary Committee was charged with
placing every possible obstruction
in the way OF the passage
of the Utah bill and more than hall
intimating that he had been bought with
Mormon gold? Was it intended to thank
Mr.. Tucker for being party to the con
tract (Which has already been made be-
tween the Democrats and Mormons to
deliver Utah into the Union as State
before the 4th OF next March ?"

THE Mormon back-action says that the
passage OF the Tucker bill was the work
of the Loyal League. The DEMOCRAT, in
behalf of that body, accepts the compli-
ment. The honest, clear-headed and de-
termined men who comprise the League
could ask no higher praise.

those of John HALEY. The latter was
stgmatized as Jack Mormon. Although
defeated he has proven himself to be as
sound upon our local issue as either Mr..
Baskin or Mr.. Bennett Dubois, before

election, threw off the mask and posed
publicly as an opponent to Gentle rule

doing your duty by your children in not

replied Jones. IL don't believe you
fully realize what you are talking about.
Now, have brother whose oldest son
was sent up for two years for horse
stealing, and the judge. in sentencing
him, said that his ignorance and lack of
early education were strong mitigating
circumstances in the case; and instead
of making the sentence ten years, which
he would have done had the boy never
received any education, he would only
make it two. Now. do you suppose ]

; WONDERFUL TOWERS
some of the Most Remarkable Structures
of the Kind I'm the world.

OF tine ktfno In the sUffd
The ancient city of Pisa. Italy. is fa-
nous for its lofty and magnificent
structures, some Of which have very in
teresting stories. None of them. how
ever, Ia SO wonderful as the celebrated
leaning tower. This building was
commenced in 1174 by Pisan archi-
tect. named BONANZA. by William of
Innspruck. 1t is of cylindrical form.
one hundred and seyenty-nine feet
high, fifty feet In diameter. and leans
twelve feet nine inches from the per-
pendicular. 1t consists of eight stories.
each of which has an outside gallery
projecting from it, From the summit.
which is reached BY several hundred
steps, beautiful and extensive view
may he had OF the surrounding eoun-
try. The misconstruetion was discov-
cred before the tower was finished. and
the upper tiers were so shaped as 10
partly counteract the arcutation. At
the top of the tower seven immense
bells were so placed, as by their
weight. To counterbalance the leaning
of the tower.
The highest tower in the world is AT
Cremona, i'm Northern Italy: it is three
hundred and ninety-six feet high. 1t
was begun in 1928, and the bells which
are i'm il were cast in 1873. An astro-
nomical clock, made in the year 1894.
is placed in the third story.
The Florentine campanilc was COM
menced in 1884. by Giotto. the great
painter. architect and sculptor. He

with the determination TO surpass all
the ancient structures of this kind, both
in height and in richness of design.
But Giotto. having died in 1856. the
tower was completed by Taddeo Gaddi.
Its height is two hundred and seventy
six feet, and it is divided into four tiers.
II is of equal dimensions from bottom
to top, and is built on the Italian Goth
ic style. On the basement floor there
are two rows of tablets in relief; they
are the work of Giotto. There are also
many beautiful statues on the upper
tier 1t was the original design of
Giotto to have a spire surmeunt the
| present tower, and the columns which
were to support it may still be seen on
| the top of the building.
The famous tower known as Giralda.
is situated mt Seville. Spain. This tower
when originally built by Phillip Cue
vara. the Moor. was only two hundred
and fifty feet high. But in 1868 mag
nificent belfry one hundred feet high
was added. and it is now the seco d
highest in the world.
The eampanile was called Giralsia,
because of the brazen weathereoek in
its top story. Although the figure
weighs ton and half, it is easily
turned by the wind. Ii is said that q
very fine campanile was situated al
Salisbury, England. II is supposed te
have been two hundred feet high. and
was probably destroyed by Sir Thoma:

Toothsome Boiled Bread.

A writer in housekeeping journal
affirms that bread can be boiled instead
of baking it and with far less heat of the
range. The new method consists
mainly in steaming the dough instead
of cooking it in the oven. 1t is claimed
that this is a great invention, as it
saves the time and experience neceS-
sary to get the oven to the right heat
for baking, which has always proved
the great obstacle to baking at home.
The utensils required are simply these:
First tin mould, or camp-kettie. in
which the dough is placed after it has
been mixed with the usual ingredients
water, yeast. sugar and salt-and
secondly, a larger tin saucepan. into
which the mould fits. The watcr in the
outer saucepan is allowed to boil around
the tin mould for two or three hours,
the lids of both utensils being kept
closely down and at the end of that
time the loaf may be turned out. 1t
will be found firm. solid and palatable.
